Michael Morris

Michael Morris (Saitdean, UK, 1942). Michael Morris is an interdisciplinary artist who, alongside being a key figure of Canadian avant-garde in the 1960s, contributed to the acknowledgement of Fluxus in Canada. In 1969 he created with Vincent Trasov the “Image Bank”, a system of postal correspondence between participating artists for the exchange of information and ideas. Later in 1973 Morris funded one of Canada’s first artist-run centres, the “Western Front”. To this day Morris is a strong advocate for art profusion in his country.
